| Oh damn, Ai is an aggressive one lol. She just added herself as a rival against Erika. I mean, I'm not even surprised. She came with a very outspoken personality since appearing this season. This episode also was amusing for how she reacted in general. Funny how life just changes for Nagi in the blink of an eye. |
 |
| Ai goes all out this week, which leads to an absolutely hilarious 'fight' with Erika, a cute confession to Nagi, and her revealing that she's apparently a somewhat famous singer. Nagi trying to be smooth in front of Segawa was funny but backfired quite a bit. I also had a good laugh watching Segawa basically trying to sabotage both Erika and Sachi. A very amusing episode overall, with Ai making waves and positioning herself as a serious rival to Erika, Sachi and Segawa. |
| One of my fave episodes! Like I said before, Ai is a love her or hate her character and I love her. It’s so sweet how she’s held onto her feelings for Nagi so long and you won’t hear any complaints from me over her refusing to back down! Not Ai being in the room as Erika woke up and shadowing her ๐ญ she’s Erika’s biggest fan. Loved their little showdown in the darts game today. It’s always nice seeing Erika getting flustered and a little jealous. Youmiya Hina did an amazing job during Ai’s confession. Best girl does as best girl does. The way she made it seem like she’s Nagi’s way out of the swamp that his life currently is was a bit funny because, by all accounts, Nagi has one of the best living situations anyone could ask for surrounded by all these beautiful girls lol. Yandere Hiro is always hilarious. Respect to Nagi for letting her know he got confessed to, but man I was scared for him for a bit there lol Festival time! Ai in Yukata looks so pretty, the cosplay competition was fun too, but Ai cosplaying as herself is kind of cheating since she’s an actual idol. I like that they made an actual song for the performance and the animation is so good! Great episode |

| I felt like the first season was long as hell with very few interesting things, but the second season and this 4th episode hooks me up a lot more tbh (which is quite surprising 'cuz I kinda had given up on the anime). Even if it includes a lot of anime clichés, I believe there's a chance I'll be invested in what happens next. |
| Visual novels have the best adaptations when it comes to hentai, same for anime |
| Thank god that first half didn't drag because Nagi being full of himself after Ai confessed was so hard to watch. I guess Hiro wanted a proper bunny girl and nurse cosplay but Erika and Sachi just never had time. Ai has a really pretty voice though, plus she has arguably the best fashion sense of any of them. I really like her character so far. I guess she's famous too. |
| Erika sure gained quite the unusual stalker in the form of Ai. So her first strike in her plan of marrying Nagi is intel gathering huh. Still making college at age 13 is impressive. The darts game was amusing. Higa plus the watermelon slicked with the juice of the melon sure was a chilling sight. The girls sure looked dashing in Yukata especially Ai's more modern version. Hiro's cosplay outfit sure was good. Ai sure pulled the ultimate surprise with her sudden concert though. Quite the venue to reveal her identity as well. |

| Poor Nagi, during the dart game, basically having the status of a meat scrap between predators. I need Ai-chan as an Evil Lieutenant. Seems like a yandere with kudere mannerisms. "It appears you are flailing desperately." Nailed. Nagi is so damn hopeless. Ai-chan soars into the lead. " ... and that girl." |

| okay last reveal was pretty good have to admit that. i was getting bored with another girl getting introduced but her being an idol made that alright. |
 |
| Lol it's funny because now they're realizing how popular Ai really is... and that she genuinely confessed to Nagi |
 |
| Ai has already ranked as the better girl of the series, almost. |
| Pretty sad quality, to be honest. Pushing the plot for the sake of pushing the plot, no flow just a whole bunch of comedy driven immature junk plot throughout. The intro to Ai's identity was such a mess I didn't feel the tiniest bit of hype at all, it was more like wtf just happened by the end of this ep... 4/10 and will drop if this 4ss quality continues |
| ๐ถ๐คWe need a full version of "Electrical Fault" by Hina Youmiya right now. ๐ถ๐ถ๐ |
| I had a feeling Ai was the one doing the performance when the pamphlet was first shown, she mentioned that she sings online during the dart game so that was the place my brain immediately went, and hey she’s pretty awesome! I like the callback to the song Segawa was singing during karaoke too, I was waiting for the “biddy biddy” to come in at the end because of Segawa realizing that lol. But yeah it’s safe to say Ai stole the show there at the end, the cosplay event was already good with Erika misunderstanding the assignment, Sachi improvising after having no time to get a proper nurse cosplay, and Segawa actually having a good cosplay complete with a dance, but yeah it’s hard to beat an actual performance like that. And honestly Ai kinda took over most of this episode, she pretty much embarrassed Erika at darts and knew exactly what to ask to mess with her, then there was Ai’s confession which honestly would make any guy melt, and with that being the first time Nagi had actually been confessed to, it’s no wonder it had a great effect on him for a bit, also Segawa looking murderous after hearing about it was quite funny lol. I still don’t think Ai has quite made up for all the lost time yet, but I gotta admit she’s making some very strong plays, her presence in the show has been a lot of fun so far too, I’m definitely looking forward to what she does next and how the resident trio fights back. Also, wasn’t expecting Shion to return in this one as one of the judges, I actually kinda forgot about him lol, I wanna say those glasses guys are returning as well, 2022 was a while ago now so it’s tough to remember exactly. |
| Ai is such a fun addition to Nagi's fiancee |
| Ok AI is #1 she leaves the others in the dust Pretty good harem here |
 |
| Totally cringe of Nagi to go over and tell Hiro about the confession while she’s extremely proud of herself for leading a festival. Erika is actually stupid for her bunny costume smh Ai has a point though. Nagi needs to make up his mind |
As a wise man once said, "No one hates anime more than anime fans"  |
| So Nagi told his crush that his childhood friend confessed to him, just to make her jealous... That was just, really dumb, and kind of a dick move. And now that she knows about Ai and the confession, it's only going to cause more drama... great. |
 |
| In a series like this, you would think he would have already been confessed to. But given his density to body language, that's an understandable reaction. Also, I dunno why they're acting so surprised that Ai confessed. She already said she would marry him. Confession just feels like a formality at this stage. Btw, Segawa got completely crushed there at the end. I would have folded there ngl. |
 |
| Ai's performance, although cool, it was not Cosplay, so technically it really shouldn't count ... right? |
Note: I don’t lazily watch 3-5 episodes, biasedly compare to other anime, or unfairly judge by surface level similarities. With every anime I start, I watch the entire series, both Japanese Sub & English Dub, then judge each anime based on what they present, to give an honest and fair rating. |
